Qi Yu turned to look at her lewd senior brother and asked, "Senior brother, what's your name?"
The lewd senior brother's gaze darted around, and he stammered without saying a word.
Qi Yu said impatiently, "Senior brother, I could have found you even if you hadn't told me. If you tell me now, maybe I'll be in a better mood and let you off the hook."
The lewd senior brother then said, "My name is Wei Suo."
Qi Yu: "...Alright, Director Wei, you can go back now. If that person comes looking for you again, remember to tell me. This is my communication jade talisman."
She took out her communication jade talisman and smiled kindly, "Senior brother, I think you know which is more important, money or life, right?"
Wei shook his head twice, then honestly took out his communication jade scroll and established contact with Qi Yu.
After letting Wei go, Qi Yu stood there, gazing thoughtfully in the direction she had been led away.
That is...
Meteor suddenly stepped forward and said, "Senior Sister, Senior Brother Wei is probably here for me. He's been making things difficult for me all along. This time, I'm probably the one who dragged you into this..."
Qi Yu turned to look at him, not saying that Wei Suo was angry because she had teased him, but only comforting him, "Wei Suo is greedy for money, you are not the main reason."
She walked back to the little thatched hut, muttering to herself, "I'm afraid they have ulterior motives..."
Feng Xiao followed casually, while Liu Xing hesitated for a moment, unsure of where to go.
Qi Yu stopped in front of the door, saw Liu Xing's appearance, waved and said, "Liu Xing, come here."
Meteor was then relieved and followed.
Qi Yu pondered for a moment. Liu Xing had just encountered this incident, and if she let him return to the Miscellaneous Service Peak alone, there was no guarantee that he wouldn't run into trouble. To be on the safe side, it was better to let him stay under her watchful eye.
Now that they have signed a master-servant contract, there is no need to worry that Meteor will betray her.
She reached out and pulled out the hairpin that brushed against the railing in the spring breeze, giving it a slight shake.
A white, gaping hole appeared in the little thatched hut.
Meteor stared in astonishment at the strange white hole that seemed to lead to another dimension, and said, "This is..."
Feng Xiao walked straight inside without any hesitation.
Qi Yu grabbed Liu Xing's arm and pulled him into the white hole.
An exquisitely beautiful space unfolded before Meteor's eyes like a painting.
It was getting late, and Qi Yu was exhausted from expending too much spiritual energy today. She pulled Liu Xing straight into the Flower Moon Pavilion, randomly pointed him to a room, and took out bedding from her storage ring and stuffed it into his hands.
"Now that we've signed the contract, you're mine. This is my space, and no one will usually find out. This room is for you. Come and rest whenever you want; don't feel awkward."
Meteor stood in front of Qi Yu, clutching the quilt, momentarily dazed.
Since that day, he had been like a walking corpse, barely surviving on a belly full of hatred, until he met the person in front of him and felt a little bit of life again.
He thought that with his five spiritual roots, he would never be able to avenge his parents in this lifetime, but she gave him a new life.
Meteor's eyes trembled as she stared intently at Qi Yu, like a most loyal believer gazing devoutly at his god.
"Thank you... Senior Sister."
Qi Yu looked at him, pursed her lips, touched his hair, and walked towards her room without responding.
As she entered the room, Feng Xiao was already waiting for her.
Qi Yu was feeling lazy, so she simply used a cleaning spell to clean herself up before throwing herself onto the bed.
"ah……"
Indeed, only the bed is her eternal home.
She showed half her face, looked at Feng Xiao, and said, "When did you come out? Did you see what the person I was chasing looked like?"
Feng Xiao said, "No, but the one you're chasing might not be human."
Qi Yu suddenly sat up straight and asked, "What is that?"
Feng Xiao said, "It should be a demonic beast."
Qi Yu frowned, but the dark figure was clearly human-shaped...
Could it be a demon cultivator who has already cultivated into human form?
Demon cultivators are extremely rare; one might not encounter one for decades.
For a demon beast to cultivate into human form, it not only needs strength but also luck. If it's lucky, it might just happen to cultivate into human form; if it's unlucky, no matter how hard it tries, it will be fruitless.
With such a grand display, even demon cultivators have been mobilized. What are they planning to do...?
She probably doesn't have anything valuable on her.
Qi Yu sighed, buried her face in the blankets, speechless at this world full of mysteries.
Since things have come to this, let's go to sleep.
Tomorrow I'll face Venerable Canglang's grueling training again; I can't handle it without rest.
Qi Yu fell asleep without hesitation. She covered herself with the blanket, arranged her pillow, and assumed the most standard sleeping posture, respectfully preparing herself for sleep.
Within minutes, her even breathing could be heard from the bed.
"..."
Feng Xiao, who was sitting at the table to the side, raised his eyes slightly, held his breath and observed for a while. Seeing that Qi Yu was indeed asleep, he quietly approached.
The girl's face was rosy, and even though she had an extremely ordinary face, it made Feng Xiao feel happy.
He leaned down, nervously closed his eyes slightly, and placed a light kiss on the girl's forehead.
The silver-haired youth paused for a moment, then straightened up, his face flushed.
His crimson eyes shimmered with a watery light, and he almost lost his breath.
Feng Xiao stood still for a while, then suddenly transformed into a magnificent white phoenix and flew to the branches outside the window.
The clear cry of the phoenix echoed through the space, carrying a joy that was almost overflowing.
In the room of Huayue Tower, Qi Yu, who was lying quietly on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes and reached out to touch his brow.
The warmth of the phoenix flute still seems to linger there.
Qi Yu closed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.
Even inexplicable affection can give people the illusion of being loved.
Although it's an illusion, I'm happy in the moment.
...
The next day, Qi Yu was awakened by the restriction she had set up in the small thatched hut; someone had touched the restriction.
She quickly got up, left the space, and opened the door.
The first thing I saw when I opened the door was Venerable Canglang's sour face.
Qi Yu lowered her gaze, and the short boy next to Venerable Canglang nodded at her with a smile.
Yun Gui seems to have shrunk a little more. Is it just my imagination?
Qi Yu scratched her messy hair and glanced at the sky.
"Master, Senior Brother, you're up really early."
It's not even dawn yet!
Venerable Canglang pushed her aside, walked into the room, and frowned as he looked around.
Where's the shooting star?
Yun pulled her fox fur coat tighter around herself and went inside, going straight to the wooden bed to sit down.
It is autumn outside, but the Flying Star Sect has a barrier that makes it spring all year round with a suitable temperature and climate. However, Yun Gui always wraps himself in a thick fox fur coat, as if he is afraid of the cold.
Qi Yu blinked and said, "How would I know?"
Yun Gui waved his hand and said, "Let him out, it's alright."
Qi Yu glanced at him. Yun Gui's childlike face was filled with deep fatigue, as if he had been forced to work before he had fully recovered.
